17 yachts from 7 nations are setting out on the world's longest ocean race.
00:37
7 months and 27,000 miles of hard sailing.
00:48
Sayula is the most international boat in the race.
00:51
Built in Finland to an American design
00:54
and skippered by her Mexican owner, Ramon Carlin.
01:13
They went through something 40 years ago that is completely unique.
01:17
Yachting at that time was very nationalistic.
01:20
They went for English boat or French boat.
01:23
They couldn't use any foreigners.
01:25
The English have always considered themselves the masters of the sea.
01:29
All the best sailors in the Navy.
01:32
They proposed the idea of launching this race
01:35
with the absolute certainty that they were going to win.
01:40
The French government designed a special sailboat,
01:43
very powerful, very fast,
01:46
with a good crew.
01:50
They sort of said,
01:52
Mexican, what the hell are you doing in a race like that?
01:55
That is nothing for you.
01:58
Before the departure in England,
02:01
the English newspapers made fun of us.
02:05
They put Mexicans with these wide hats
02:08
and made caricatures,
02:10
going around the winch, the sailboat,
02:13
without knowing what to do,
02:15
making balls with the rope of the sails.
02:27
And I just said to him,
02:28
I never start a race without intending to win it.
